About this audiobook

In the frozen, unforgiving vastness of the Yukon during the Klondike Gold Rush, a domestic world is shattered. Buck, a powerful St. Bernard-Scotch Collie mix, is stolen from his comfortable California estate and sold into the brutal life of an Arctic sled dog. Thrust into a primordial world governed by "club and fang," he must abandon the codes of civilization and heed a deeper, more ancient law. Stripped of all comfort, Buck's survival depends on his instincts. He learns to fight, to steal, and to sleep beneath the snow. From the cruelty of men to the cunning of his fellow dogs, each trial hardens him and sharpens a growing wildness within. As his ties to humanity fray, he feels an irresistible pull from the surrounding forests—a call echoed by the howling of wolves, a call that speaks to the very core of his being. Jack London's The Call of the Wild is a profound and visceral exploration of the conflict between civilization and nature, the thin veneer of domestication, and the indomitable primal force that lies within all creatures. In Buck's epic journey from a trusted pet to a legend of the wild, London penned one of the greatest and most enduring tales of survival and self-discovery ever written.
